Hello!

Hello,
Im new here so thought id just introduce myself. I am a young mum of 2 from the UK. My goal is to just become a healthier version of myself!
I am fairly small (5ft 1in) but i have no interest in starving myself to lose weight! I currently weigh just over 8st but am not very lean, i am aiming to eat a net of around 1750 calories a day. I am fairly active with walking but i need to get back into working out again!
Feel free to add me on here or fitbit (redefiningmyhealth on there), id love to have some friends for accountability!
Take care!

    Hello! ☺
    Im hoping to incorporate some free weights and resistance bands. I did used to do quite a bit of HIIT and low weight strength but i suffered from anorexia and had to give up all exercise so now i want to get back into it in a healthy way. I have gained 2.5stone since then and my mind is far healthier now so i feel ready.

    Based on your goals, lifting weights is what you want! Having a proven lifting plan is always a good idea. Stronglifts 5x5 is where I started and I loved it. Check it out and get the free tracking app at stronglifts.com.
